THE BANKS.
The Hanks of Washington and Wades-borough
were chartered by the Legisla-ture
of 1850 51, at which session there
was a Democratic majority in both
branches. The Hanks of Charlotte and
Yanceyville, and the Farmer's Hank, were
shattered in 1853; ai which session the
notion had no existence before that time
for even Jackson himself had said, in one
of his Messages, lliai he could give the
plan of such a Hank as he thought he could
sign.—that is to say, if he could got a
Hank which would answer the purposes of
an engine ol State, he would sign the bill.

principle was Colonel Bentun. The '•.Mon-ster"

THE BANKS.
The Hanks of Washington and Wades-borough
were chartered by the Legisla-ture
of 1850 51, at which session there
was a Democratic majority in both
branches. The Hanks of Charlotte and
Yanceyville, and the Farmer's Hank, were
shattered in 1853; ai which session the
notion had no existence before that time
for even Jackson himself had said, in one
of his Messages, lliai he could give the
plan of such a Hank as he thought he could
